You won’t go wrong with Klein Brot Haus in Brookston, Indiana.

This small town bakery is fresh, priced right, and simply delicious!

Not only is Brookston, Indiana really cute but this Indiana bakery was situated in a fantastic old building with really sharp woodwork.

It sort of reminded me of the FingerHut Bakery in North Judson, Indiana. Definitely long on character!

They even had a selection of locally crafted goods. I saw an Indiana-shaped cutting board!  I’m thinking that I have to go back and get that one!

Klein Brot Haus Menu

Klein Brothers Bakery had such an awesome selection.  Don’t think I use the word “awesome” lightly, either. In the case of Klein Brot Haus Bakery? It’s easily justifiable.

I’m talking pies, breads, croissants, cookies, and bars. It smells so incredibly good inside this rather large downtown business. They even had a breakfast and lunch menu plus a salad bar!

Chalkboards hung up above the many, many shelves of baked items for sale. Not only was it a nice touch but it was helpful, too. It was easy to take it all in and find what you need in just a glance. What a great idea!

What exactly did we need? Well, little Indiana and family had to do a taste test, you know, in the interest of research! The gigantic Iced Cinnamon Rolls were calling my name. How could I refuse?

Hubs ordered a big Chocolate Croissant and the kid picked out a ginormous Iced Sour Cream Sugar Cookie. That cookie was so soft–and delicious!

I have no idea how it happened but somehow we didn’t buy anything extra! No loaves of freshly baked bread, no chocolate chunk cookies for the road, and no fruit pie for later. *insert sad face here*

Whatever were we thinking? Sigh.

Good to Go

We have GOT to make a return visit to this quaint Indiana town and soon–and you do, too!

Klein Brot Haus, or Klein Brothers Bakery, no matter how you say it, it definitely deserves the attention.

    I grew up in this area – my mom worked at the Klein Brot Haus for a little while. She came home with so many great recipes – one thing I will never forget is the popcorn! She’d work on this fabulous recipes that they made custom for weddings, etc. Pink popcorn balls with marsmallow and peppermint candies to color them – yum! Not sure if they still do that or not – but I loved the idea!
